    Larger Spark Plug Wires

    I'm going to get new plug wire soon. Is there a noticable difference in these aftermarket wires??? I'm thinking of some 10.2mm with those grounding straps on 'em ... is it worth it...

    Also, anyone notice a diff. with special plugs?? Like those iridium or platinums... I was told just get regular NGKs..

    Thanks

    in my opinion i say stick with ngk when it comes to plugs and wires....As for whether you feel a difference ...it depends...whens the last time u changed your plugs and wires...if your old ones are in really bad condition the car should run a lil smoother...dont expect crazy gains

        Yeah I'm gonna get new wires regardless... I just saw a deal on those ones with the ground straps and figured I'd check to see if anyone actually uses them first.

          Yeah I had a set of OBX plugs and 10.2 plug wires. They didn't make a difference when I put them on and I think they actually made the car run worse. I then learned my lesson and bought NGK plugs and wires. IMO they're the best brand to use for our cars. My car has been runnin smooth since.

              every time i do a tune and replace the plugs, i always have to replace the wires too because i end up breaking one.

                any one of you can go and pick up the honda builders handbook at any bookstore and you will learn a lot about plug wires that may shock you,

                first yes new wires conduct more than old ones, most stock wires are carbon based which wear down over time

                second, no wire adds power, just gives you more spark via less resistance which gives you a hotter spark and burns your fuel durring lean conditions better

                third, these magical ground strap capasitor wires are a bunch of bull and actualy can mess with the electronic flow through the wire

                according to the people in the book, aka the people at jackson racing, megnacore wires, and so forth your best bet is not wasting your money on 50 inch thick wires but to get a solid non carbon core wire ( aka not stock replacements) and you will get all you can out of a stock ignition. if you get the book they explain it a lot better, there is a whole chapter on just ignition, ill post a pic of the cover latter

                PEACE
